Import Tips & Compliance

• Ensure the shield is not a separate article that could be classified under another chapter, as it may affect the item's classification

• Declare the pad as a complete unit for edging, and keep the product's packaging to show it is not a brush

• Verify the pad's material to avoid reclassification as a roller
